2-LEVEL LIGHTING TIMER

Light comes on half bright for selected time after dusk

(Off, 3 hr., 6 hr., until dawn). If motion is sensed, the

light turns on full bright for the ON-TIME (1, 5, or 20

minutes) then returns to dim mode.

TEST

Note: When ﬁ rst turned on wait about 1

minutes for

the circuitry to calibrate.

Manual mode only works at night

because daylight returns the sensor

to AUTO.

Flip the light switch off for one second

then back on to toggle between AUTO

and MANUAL MODE.

Manual mode works only with the

ON-TIME switch in the 1, 5, or 20

position.

* If you get confused while switching modes, turn the

power off for one minute, then back on. After the cali-

bration time the control will be in the AUTO mode.

INSTALLATION

For easy installation, select an existing light operated

by a wall switch for replacement.

For best performance, mount the ﬁ xture about 8 ft. (2.4 m)

above the ground.

CAUTION: Keep the sensor at least 1" (2.5 cm)

away from the lamps.

❒ Place the Mounting Bolt through the front of the

junction box cover. Push the small gasket hole over

the Mounting Screw.

❒ Make sure the wire connectors and wires are inside

the junction box. Align the Mounting Screw with the

center hole in the Mounting Strap. Secure the ﬁ xture

to the Mounting Strap.

MOUNT THE LIGHT CONTROL

❒ Push the Rubber Plug ﬁ rmly into place.

❒ If not installed on a weatherproof box, caulk the

wall plate and mounting surface with silicone

❒ Adjust the lamp holders by loosening the lock nuts

but do not rotate the lamp holders more than 180°

from the factory setting.

Keep lamps at least 1" (2.5

cm) from the sensor.

Black to Black

White to White

Gasket

Connect any ﬁ xture ground wire(s) and the cover plate

ground screw to the junction box ground wire.

CAUTION: To Avoid Fire Or Burn Hazards:

• Allow ﬁ xture to cool before touching. The bulb and the

ﬁ xture operate at high temperatures.

• Keep ﬁ xture at least 2" (5 cm) from combustible materi-

als. Do not aim at objects closer than 3 feet. (1 m).

• Use only T3, 150W (max.) tungsten halogen 120

VAC lamps.

WIRE THE LIGHT CONTROL

WARNING: Turn power off at circuit breaker.

❒ Remove the existing light ﬁ xture.

❒ Install mounting strap to junction box using screws

appropriate for your junction box.

❒ The plastic hanger can be used to hold the ﬁ xture

while wiring. The small end of the plastic hanger

can be threaded through the hole in the center of

the cover plate. The small end then goes into one

of the slots on the mounting strap.

❒ Thread all ﬁ xture wires through the large holes in

the gasket as shown.

❒ Connect the junction box wires to the light ﬁ xture

wires as shown. Twist together and secure with

wire connectors.

Rubber Plug

Mounting

Bolt

For eave mount only:

❒ Swing the sensor head towards the clamp screw

joint.

If the sensor pops out of the ball joint, loosen the

clamp screw and push the sensor back into the ball

joint. Tighten the clamp screw when done.

❒ Then rotate the sensor head clockwise 180° so

the controls face down.

Controls

For under eave installation, the sensor head must

be rotated as shown in the next two steps for proper

operation and to avoid the risk of electrical shock.

Also for proper under eave operation, remove the

protective backing from the Light Shield and stick on

as shown below.

BULB INSTALLATION

NOTE: Lamps are included, but you will need to

install them

NOTE: When re-lamping, turn power off and let the

ﬁ xture cool.

❒ Open glass covers. To remove the old bulb push the

bulb towards the right (with ﬁ xture as shown) until

the left side of the bulb is clear of the left socket.

❒ To install a bulb, push the bulb into the right socket

so the bulb ﬁ ts completely into the left socket.

❒ Check that the bulb is seated properly.

❒ Close the glass covers.

Push the Rubber Plug

over the mounting screw.

Motion

TEST AND ADJUSTMENT

❒ Turn on the circuit breaker and light switch.

NOTE: Sensor has a 1

minute warm up period be-

fore it will detect motion. When ﬁ rst turned on

or when switching modes wait 1

minutes.

Bottom of Sensor

Avoid aiming the sensor at:

• Objects that change temperature rapidly, such as

heating vents and air conditioners. These heat

sources could cause false triggering.

• Areas where pets or trafﬁ c may trigger the control.

• Nearby large, light-colored objects reﬂ ecting light

may trigger the shut-off feature. Do not point other

lights at the sensor.

❒ Turn the RANGE control to the mid position, 2-Level

Lighting to OFF and the ON-TIME control to the

TEST position.

❒ Loosen the clamp screw in the

sensor ball joint and gently

rotate the sensor.

❒ Walk through the coverage

area noting where you are

when the lights turn on. Move

the sensor head up, down, or

sideways to change the cover-

age area. Keep the sensor at

least 1" (2.5 cm) away from

the lamps.

❒ Adjust the RANGE as needed.

RANGE set too high may

increase false triggering.

❒ Secure the sensor head's

aim by tightening the clamp

screw. Do not overtighten the

screw.

❒ Set the amount of TIME you

want the lights to stay on after

motion is detected (1, 5, or 20 minutes).

❒ Set the 2-Level Lighting switch to the amount of

time after dusk you want the lights on at low level

(Off, 3, 6 Hrs., Dusk-to-Dawn).

POSSIBLE CAUSE

1. A lamp is positioned too close to the

sensor or pointed at nearby objects

that cause heat to trigger the sensor.

(Reposition the lamp away from the

sensor or nearby objects).

2. Sensor is pointed toward a heat

source like an air vent, dryer vent, or

brightly-painted heat-reﬂ ective surface.

(Reposition sensor).

3. Light Control is in Manual Mode. (Switch

to Auto).

1. Heat or light from the lamps may be

turning the Light Control on and off.

(Reposition the lamps away from the

sensor).

2. Heat being reﬂ ected from other objects

may be affecting the sensor. (Reposi-

tion sensor).

3. Light Control is in the Test mode and

warming up. (Flashing is normal under

these conditions. Turn Boost off).

1. Sensor is detecting its own lights. (Re-

position lamps to keep area below the

sensor relatively dark).

SYMPTOM

Lights stay

on continu-

ously.

Lights ﬂ ash

on and off.

Lights ﬂ ash

once, then

stay off in

Manual Mode.

SYMPTOM

Lights will

not come on.

Lights come

on in day-

light.

Lights come

on for no

apparent

reason.

Lights turn

off too late

in Dusk-to-

Dawn setting.

POSSIBLE CAUSE

1. Light switch is turned off.

2. Light is loose or burned out.

3. Fuse is blown or circuit breaker is

turned off.

4. Daylight turn-off is in effect (Recheck

after dark).

5. Incorrect circuit wiring, if this is a new

installation.

6. Re-aim the sensor to cover desired

area.

1. Light Control may be installed in a

relatively dark location.

2. Light Control is in Test. (Set control

switch to an ON-TIME position).

1. Light Control may be sensing small

animals or automobile trafﬁ c. (Re-aim

sensor).

2. Sensitivity is set too high. (Reduce

sensitivity).

3. 2-Level Lighting Timer is on.
